As a family of three flying with a toddler, we always use this hack to try to get extra space for sleeping, especially since we usually take long-haul flights from Australia. I’d say it works about 7 out of 10 times. It’s definitely anxiety-inducing, but whenever we get the extra space, it feels like we’ve won the lottery 😂.

📍 Marina One Green Heart, Singapore

This is a hidden garden in Singapore that most tourists completely miss 🌿 and it is located in Central Singapore. Best of all, it is completely free

We came between 3–4 PM and it was almost empty—the kind of quiet you don’t expect in the CBD.

******Gentle reminder that the buildings above are offices and residential spaces. Please be considerate and keep noise levels low while enjoying the gardens 🌿

How to find it:
📍 Marina One, 5 Straits View, Singapore
🚇 Nearest MRT: Downtown (DT17) or Marina Bay (NS27/CE2)
Just head into Marina One and follow signs for “Green Heart”

A boodle fight is a Filipino-style meal where food is spread on banana leaves and everyone eats together using their hands—no plates or utensils.

It’s all about sharing and togetherness. Everyone eats side by side from the same spread, which reflects Filipino values of community, equality, and hospitality. It started in the military but is now a fun way families and friends bond.
